On the May 30 broadcast of MBC’s Show! Music Core, Ha Ji Won performed “Home Run,” a song originally released in 2003. The track served as the OST for the film Reversal of Fortune, in which she starred, and was written and composed by singer Psy. The song gained significant popularity at the time of its release.
Appearing on stage in a white crop top and balloon-fit pants, Ha Ji Won immediately drew attention with her toned physique, defined abs, and youthful energy. Her confident stage presence and relaxed performance style left many viewers amazed by her seemingly ageless appearance.
The actress also impressed audiences by delivering polished choreography that erased memories of any shortcomings from her 2003 appearance on SBS’s Inkigayo. She even flawlessly pulled off the signature “ending pose” often associated with K-pop idols, earning praise from viewers watching the broadcast.
The special stage was the result of a promise she made through the web entertainment show Class of ’26 Ji Won. Ha Ji Won had vowed to recreate the performance if the program surpassed 1.2 million views. Thanks to overwhelming support from fans, the milestone was achieved, allowing her to fulfill that promise.
Following the broadcast, online communities and social media platforms were flooded with enthusiastic reactions. Many viewers commented that she looked exactly the same as she did more than two decades ago, while others admitted they could hardly believe their eyes.
Ha Ji Won has previously attracted attention for her unusual appearances on music programs as an actress. In the past, she famously performed WAX’s debut album track “Brother” as a stand-in, creating a major sensation and earning recognition for her rare crossover into the music show scene.
